[QUOTE="jackuars, post: 1089093, member: 24462"] I've used quite a few firewalls over the years, but Fort Firewall is the one I've really stuck with. It's reliable, straightforward, and doesn't compromise on security. That's what matters most to me. Before this, I've been using WFC - Windows Firewall Control. I have to say, it's been excellent. The interface is clean and intuitive, and it does a great job without any unnecessary complications. Interestingly, it was Glasswire that first got me interested in external firewalls. It made me realize just how much network activity goes on in the background. After that, the basic Windows firewall just didn't cut it anymore. As for the others, Simplewall was by far the easiest to set up. It's perfect if you want something simple and quick. Tinywall, on the other hand, is my least favorite. It' just didn't stick out for me. I understand some people prefer that, but I need a bit more functionality. Then there's Comodo and PortMaster. They offer an incredible amount of customization, which is great if you need that level of control. But for me? It's overkill. I don't need to tweak every single setting to feel secure. [/QUOTE]
